    Good Enough
    One cannot argue that Korean Drama "Bulgasal: Immortal Souls" is close to "Goblin" whether it has to do with an immortal, or that he is in need of a woman to save him of his curse. The creation of a small, unexpected family was another common factor that was a plus for this one.

    However, that is where the similarities stop. The drama has a plethora of short cases with mythical creatures that add plenty of entertainment to the main plot. The romance was subtle, in addition, with the focus being more on the conclusion of the curse and the answer to the mystery when it came to Bulgasals and how to solve the curse. Therefore, the final episode wasn't unexpected, but the proper ending to the story. The soundtrack and the cinematography were pretty impressive as well.

    However, the drama did have many episodes that were slow and boring. It also felt like the story was going in circles, repeating itself. Furthermore, the reincarnation part was awkward at times. The edits with the time passing were a bit over-the-top as well. Finally, the main villain had potential but was toned down by the plot.

    As for the performances, they were all great and enjoyable.

    So, overall, 6 out of 10.
